San-Pédro, Port city in Bas-Sassandra Region, Ivory Coast

San Pedro extends along the coastline with a population of 390,654 residents across 887 square kilometers of southwestern Ivory Coast territory.

The development of San Pedro began in the late nineteenth century, leading to its establishment as the second largest port facility in Ivory Coast.

Local fishermen maintain traditional practices passed through generations, contributing to the economic foundation of this coastal settlement.

The San Pedro Airport, situated 4 kilometers southwest of the city center, provides private jet services with a 2,000-meter runway.

The proximity to Taï National Park positions San Pedro as an access point to observe the remaining populations of pygmy hippopotamuses.
